| Tattoo Removal is a Profitable Addition to Your Practice
As owners of a profitable chain of tattoo removal clinics and specialists in the training of many physicians and other practitioners in this field, we've seen how good laser tattoo removal can be to the bottom line. Physicians will an existing medical practice are extremely well positioned to add this cash-pay procedure.
Adding laser tattoo removal to your existing practice can add $8,000 to $20,000 per month in profit within 3 to 6 months. This is a realistic range of figures that physicians are able to achieve by making several good decisions regarding equipment, marketing strategy, pricing, and internal processes.
Here's the analysis:
* Existing medical practices already have most of their costs covered - physician, nursing staff, medical assistants and techs, office space, utilities, insurance, etc.
* The key additional monthly cost to add tattoo removal is a $1,500-$2,400 monthly payment for a top-of-the-line laser.
* Other costs include marketing and very minimal consumable expenses (bandages, tape, etc.).
* Tattoo removal treatments are normally priced at $150-$500 (cash pay, no insurance reimbursement hassle) for a five to ten minute treatment on a single patient.
* Patients return every 4 to 6 weeks for follow-up treatments, and most patients will need 3-10 treatments (with 5-8 average) to remove a tattoo completely.
* Your nurse, medical assistant, or technician can perform these procedures, freeing up your valuable time.
Physicians want to increase revenue but decrease reimbursement haggling. Laser tattoo removal is a quick, safe procedure your staff can perform with a very high return on investment.
To cover the cost of the laser, very few procedures need to be performed every month. Patients are very motivated to complete a series of treatments to complete removal of their tattoo, and the practice will grow quickly as new patients complement existing follow-up patients. We are skilled at helping medical practices market this service to their existing patient population as well as use simple, cost-effective, and scalable marketing techniques to find new patients that desire laser tattoo removal.
